@Mik said in After Santos: I'm finding it hard to believe anyone is thinking expelling him is a mistake. It's the first sign of integrity I've seen in years. They're Congress Critters. Their integrity is lower than normal or they wouldn't be there. I think it was a mistake to expell him, until convicted. Once convicted, boot him.

@George-K said in A tour through the TDS afflicted mind: Trump is a threat to democracy No he's not Rather than explaining why #1 is true, tell us why #2 is true. Is that the argument? It might be. On the other hand, I don’t see Trumpff as a threat to democracy or becoming a dictator. In the first instance he can’t seem to keep staff. Dictators need mindless minions of varying degrees of competence. Trump’s staff all seem to resign after brief tenures and none to happy with his crassness and lack of sound judgement. In the second instance, no one with half a brain listens to him or is convinced he truly is the American Moses he thinks he is. Americans (and the world) can therefore rest easy because Master Corporal “Bone-spurs” Trump sure as hell ain’t a candidate ever to become the American Caesar

Thou sayest

Such a gross bureaucracy public education turns into.

According to the report, many left-wing preppers fear the re-election of former President Donald Trump could lead to a dictatorship. So the cat is out of the bag. Welcome to the TSA.

@Mik said in My Aqua Moment: One should never be that fussy with restaurant folks unless you are watching them make it. Ayep. "Waiting" was G rated based on the shit I've seen go down to get even with asshole customers.

@George-K said in Larry Was Right: "Turbo lag" is a real and annoying thing. I don't remember which of my cars had an early turbo, and it took some real getting used to. My current car has a 2 liter turbo - and you'd never know it. My mom's early 2000s Acura SUV had an old school turbo. You could feel it kick in half way through the rev range. It had that distinct air pressure loss sound with every gear shift "PSSSsss". My current vehicle has one - there's not way to tell there's a turbo in there. It has a twin scroll that lets gases in at low and high rpm differently. They've come a long way.

Wait, what? Did I see Ted Cruz in that clip? [image: 1701728949185-screenshot-2023-12-04-at-4.28.54-pm.png] [image: 1701728962524-screenshot-2023-12-04-at-4.28.54-pm.png]

Already been raped at HCA.

Seems like something of a dealbreaker.

I haven't paid much attention. Yesterday at the gym I decided to look around, far less than half had facial hair, not counting some two day Sunday stubble. And it's not just guys in my demographic there, its right off the parkway only a few miles from Yonkers, so there's a mix of ages and ethnicities.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Truth: That’s pretty offensive. What about blind people? They can’t see the dogshit and then bang! Dogshit everywhere. And just what's wrong with dogshit everywhere? Are you anti-fecesistic? Bigot.

I have bought a bunch of Kindle books. Most of them should just be trashed, they were read long ago and probably never again.

WHO Probes China's Crisis! An act of war?

@George-K said in Masks: @Jolly said in Masks: .I'm also old enough to have used glass syringes Still used them for epidurals, up until the last day I did OB (2014?). Glass bottles, too. Of course, my cavalier attitude might have contributed to my contracting hepatitis C. (which I cleared spontaneously and have no residual, for those of you who care) If you work in direct patient care, no matter how careful you are, you will be exposed to multiple transmissible diseases. I used to tell kids, if that bothers you, be an accountant.
